Chapter 26

Sophia tumed around later than she should have and was momentarily stunned to see Brandon stepping out the door. Then she whispered to Susan, “Got something to take care of now, I’ll hit you up later.”

“Huh?” Susan, who was itching to get the scoop on Brandon, was also taken aback but quickly got her act together, “Oh, sure, take your time. Remember to take it easy.”

Sophia was caught off guard at first but quickly composed herself, slightly turning her body and gesturing towards Ivan as she introduced, “Oh, this is Ivan, my senior from university. He was also our instructor for half a year and now we’re classmates again.”

After hearing the introduction, Brandon gave her a look and then turned to Ivan, his lips barely moving as he greeted him with a cool and polite, “Hello

Ivan returned the greeting with a “Hello” of his own and then looked at Sophia with a questioning gaze.
